Purpose with a Profit™

The H-­A­‐N-­D Foundation was started in conjunction with the Community Heroes Alliance Network for the Dutiful. The Foundation will be the primary recipient of funds donated by the Community Heroes Alliance’s various business entities, which will allow 100% of donations to be applied to support Community Hero needs.Heroes-Hand_noDots

The Foundation is being formed as a focal point for all community Heroes to assist when the current resources are either unable, unwilling, or slow to serve the Heroes’ needs – to include their families’ immediate needs, or the longterm needs of families of Heroes who lost their lives in service-­related incidents.
